Just following a news article on China's toxic rice led me to the front page of Google News on wat poisons are likely to hit us with the next political scare.

We solved our air pollution problems in the 1960's and 70's by building taller chimneys. I don't think that will work for the after effects of mining. What we need for the next couple of years is a major drought to see what the wet dragged in.

Something that will meet the biblical edict of pollution causing the land to vomit. What might that bring, I wonder?

It's been a long time since Britain had volcanoes. Sink holes though....

Funny you should post this I have a friend who has a peculiar problem where every time he bends over to pick up the coins from his bedroom floor that always fall out when he undresses at night, he always, without fail involuntarily farts.

His doctor said don't worry you're getting older and that's just the wind of change.

Part of the contract the Hebrews had with god is that if they broke the law badly enough as a people, they would be ripped out of the land. Jehovah's preferred MO seems to have been ruptures of one sort and another.

I have just had the privilege of being driven from my bed by leg cramps. (So much for the ketogenic diet.) Here's what the Wikipedia has to say on that particular point:

"Aches and pains

A coming storm your shooting corns presage,
And aches will throb, your hollow tooth will rage.

There have been medical studies done which indicate some people experience this effect. The most likely reason is that with a fall in atmospheric pressure, blood vessels dilate slightly in reaction. This has the effect of aggravating already-irritated nerves near corns, cavities, or arthritic joints.. Studies are inconclusive, however, with some researchers attributing this effect to selective memory.

False lore, and why

One of the problems in testing the veracity of traditions about the weather is the wide variety to be found in the details of sayings and traditions. Some variations are regional, while others exhibit less of a pattern."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weather_lore

Everyone on this planet is suffering from bad diet in one way and another. Even cultures whose simple lifestyles tend to keep them in good health are being encroached on by sugar, tobacco and industrial pollution. And there is nothing to be done about it. Even after Armageddon things will be tight, I imagine.

There again of course that is godless thinking; something else the planet is prone to at the moment. As people in Britain get older their bad diet comes to kill them slowly. The arteries clog up and the proteins in the blood tend to coagulate with the weather. It is an enormously complex system and can not take into account accessories we purchase with our comparative wealth.

Things like herpes are very much a diet related problem, for example and affect carriers in a variety of ways. No coroner is going to waste time analysing everybody that comes to their attention to study the effects of deterioration in detail.

It wasn't very long ago that most industrial diseases were just written off by all doctors under a generic term for the death certificate. Pressure groups have brought changes but have not stopped things from killing us. And when it all blows up in our faces, one man's volcano is another man's fish food. And doctors are not supposed to tell lies routinely any more.
(And not to commit mass murder too neither. Ah, yes; right! OK then. )

So these ruptures are just the planet doing for itself what we were designed to do but immediately reneged on. Hence the problem with aches and pains being weather related. It goes along with paradoxes like:
Why do volcanic periods of activity come in multiple eruptions all over the planet?
And why does the tooth ache and the gout come and go with it/the "weather"?, too.

Obviously someone so ill they are prone to abscesses is going to suffer chronic pain until he dies or gets surgery or fasts and goes on a very strict diet. Not that that will cure toothache. But stuff that sets your nerves jangling will be worsened by the weather.

Except that there is more to the weather than weather. They are merely different sides to the same coin, so to speak.

It isn't cheaper than water. And anything with the word concentrate in it is likely to be a processed food kept fresh by preserving it with sugar. Mere pasteurisation won't sell it apparently. Most supermarket fruit juices are poisons. Look up Robert Lustig's TED talk on sugars. It might help.

The only problem is that too much milk makes me fart.


You have a problem. I would get it sorted if I were you.

Beware of health foods. Especially ones wrapped in shiny plastic. Instead cut down on proteins and sugars, eat apples instead of sandwiches at work and generally pay more attention what you are putting inside you. Nobody else will do that for you.
